Well, the dreaded community garage sale is over. The rain helped shorten the weekend's plan, although there were a few folks who were out in the rain selling their stuff on Sunday.
I stayed true to my word--"nothing comes back in the house"! Next time I will say--"nothing comes back in the house and/or garage"!
It really wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. We did get rid of some items we didn't need or want anymore and in doing so, we didn't have to contribute to the landfill.
Bonus: I took the opportunity to distribute Consumer Reports' Best Drugs for Less brochure, which educates people about generic drugs and other useful information.
My blog's focus started out as an exercise to help me learn to live with the deep grief I was experiencing after my daughter's unexpected death. Looking back on the blog I truly hope some of the posts have touched other people's hearts who are living with the heartbreak of losing someone they love. Many years later the focus shifted to include things that I find interesting or compelled to share but I have never lost the main focus of the blog--GRIEF. (updated Jan 2025)
